The rutnors going the rounds the

of Mt. Pleasant, a telegram was received from E, T. Telford, postmaster
at Leduc, where the crime was reported to have been committed, which
read as follows: "No truth in that report." This is but another instance,
showing how easily a false report is
often circulated and that to tbe detriment of an innocent man. The originator of such an atrocious, attack
sho.u!d be severly dealt with.

They Rang Thirty Years Ago for
Joseph Hudson and Miss
Rachael Cross.
Last Friday was a day which for
many years, if not forever, will be remembered by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph
Hudson of Dover. On that day thirty
years ago the lives of two young people were united in what has proven a
happy marriage, and while tbey have
met reverses, thoir beautiful home
and surroundings show conclusively
that prosperity and happiness have
come to them in no mean portions.
Mr. Hudson was in the cornfield
driving a harvester, entirely unconscious of anything uncommon occurring that afternoon, until one 'after
another, a dozen men were strolling
about the place. He recovered himself, gave the guests a hearty welcome,
and at the close of the day the spacious dining room, the tables of which
fairly groaned under their load of
toothsome viands, contained the
guests wbo did justice to a most sumptuous repast.
After dinner Banker Sutherland, in
a clever manner reviewing some of
the incidents haying happened in the
past thirty years, in behalf of those
present, presented Mr. and Mrs. Hudson with an elegant silver water set.
It was a most enjoyable affair and we
are glad to have been afforded au opportunity to attend.
Those iu attendance are: Jacob
Mason and wife, H. T. Nowlin and
wife, A. J. Doherty and wife, Fred
Hudson and family, H. Ort and family, W. H. Elden and wife, George
Easier and wife, C. H, Sutherland and
wife, James McKay and family and
E. G. Welch and wife,
With just pride Mr. Hudson took
tbe company about the place, show-
iug them ohe conveniences of his fine
large barn, bis flock of seventy-Aye
prime Shropshire lambs, and other
points of interest, all of which the
guests enjoyed full as well as did the
host and hostess, and wishing Mr. and
Mrs. Hudson many more wedding anniversaries, the company drove to
their various homes glad for the asso**-
ciations of the day.
Good work team for sale.   Would
exchange for young cattle.   Inquire

For the past week tbe dqctor had
been confined to his home by a .complication of ailments, principally of
heart and lungs, but it was not until
the last ifew -days that danger of his
recovery was entertained. He died
Tuesday aged sixty-eight years, pneumonia being tbe immediate cause of
his death.
Dr. Davis was in many ways a remarkable man, and having been a resident of Clare and Isabella counties
for the past forty years, he had probably traveled every Indian trail in
tbese two counties, and knew every
acre of ground. He had served the
people in capacity of supervisor, health
officer, township treasurer, and until
recent^years he m*acticed medicine
very successfully. He was the first
white man to locate in Mt. Pleasant,
and came to Clare twenty-seven years
ago. His first wife having died four
four years ago, the only surviving
member of tbe family is his son, Moul-
con, who has been with his father during bis illness, and in every way ministered to his comfort.
The funeral was conducted from the
house by the Masons, many bf the order going to Mt. Pleasant this' morning where the remains were laid at
rest. - -
Only One Tramp Found.
Miss Jane Yatman has just completed a bicycle ride from New York
to Chicago, covering the distance in
354 hours. According to tbe Chicago
American "abe carried a revolver of
large caliber for.defence, but she had
no occasion to use it. She met but one
tramp who was Inoffensive." The question naturally arises as to how many
tramps Miss Yatman would have met
between New York and Chicago had
she made the same trip at any time
during the la&t Democratic administration.
